' Studied Aviation Abroad. The secretary of war is making s study of the status of aviation hero and abroad with a view to putting the United States in the forefront of the march. He received lately from >Brlf^ Gen. Villlam Mitchell, assistant chief of the aviation service, the result of two months' investigation the latter hna made of conditions In Bo* rope. Incidentally MB Mitchell, one of the veteran flyers of the country, told the secretary of war of a unique experience he had the other day In the vicinity of Detroit when making a flight from Chicago. General Mitchell ran into a thunder cloud which had a length of at least 120 miles. General Mitchell had never In his previous experience ran into a storm of this size. Thunder clouds, always S deterrent to aviators, usually meas- .ure about twenty miles and by' IJylng on the edge of them the aviator can -gat into tao open In short time. After skirtinc the edge of this cloud for some eighty. miles General Mitchell found that it extended still forty miles. Discussing his visit with General Mitchell, who had jest completed a trip from McCook field, Dayton, 0„ to Boiling field. Secretary Weeks said that General Mitchell believes that stricter examination and licensing is the great prerequisite to the development of commercial aviation in the United States. Before the general public can feel assurance regarding commercial air routes the secretary said there must be legislation that provides rigid inspection of airplanes and the licensing of pilots. Federal regulations are deemed the most appropriate, as these would e msd e«e< |e discrepancies In-laws Encourage Commercial Aircraft. W'Froin the standpoint of the War department the development of commercial aircraft should have every encouragement 'or the reason that It wouid- provide for the army a great reserve of competent pilots and, officers in any national emergency. At the present time there Is no law providing for the inspection or regulation of pilots or their machines when engaged in commercial service, and this fact, the secretary of war believes, has given rise to many of the accidents that have occurred In the past. As an example of the degree of safety which may be attained n commercial flying the secretary of war instanced the fact th#t one commercial line operating between ^lanii. Fla.. and Nassau has carried 50,000 to 100,000 passengers without an accident. The same company that operates the Miami-Nassau'route is now interested In developing an air route between Detroit and Cleveland by way of the lake. / Boston No Hub; , sU-Sif Declares an* [x umatism and BUR,E0 H,s w^l in Wiunr Dyspepsia Art Soon Ended •.«- Gedlbgfca! Survey Pfates tertter of Country in Smith County, WASHINGTON OUT OF PLAGE Capital of Country Should Be Located Thousand Miles Inland From Present Site--Locate Cenfear of Alaska. Washington.--Boston, Mass., is S very Important place to a great many people, but, so far as the United States geological survey is ^concerned. Boston as a "Hub," as it claims to be, doesn't amount to a row of pins. Boston, too, prides Itself on being tire "Hub of the Universe," but the survey ranks it at the bottom i>f the list of hubs, or centers. f For the geological survey thinks that a city Is a nub only when it Is the center of *he land, geographically Smashers of*Aviation Records speaking, and points the finger of scorn at ,the Massachusetts city for not even being the center of the state of which it happens to be the capital --much less of any universe. Honor for the Smiths. The survey has received a lot of letters of inquiry from persons wanting to know "where they're at," where the geographical center of the United States is, or the center of their own state. The survey has taken great pains at locating the, various geographical centers around the continent. The center of the United States, according to the coast and geodetic survey, is at exactly 39 degrees 50 minutes north latitude, and 98 degrees 35 minutes west longitude. It may be said that point Is in northern Kansas, in Smith county, in fact Trurt the Smiths to be there. The Ideal "hub" of population, gov* eminent and industry, should also be the geographical center, the survey believes, but that is true In few. If any cases. "Hubs" Just grow up regardless, and the center of population In this country Is yearly moving -weet wsrd. Washington Out of PIscs. • Even Washington, the nation's cap! tal, is wrongly situated, from the geographer's point of view, and should be at least a thousand miles Inland from Its present site to better approach the geographical center of the country. St. Louis, Denver and other cities have been mentioned at various times as more fitting sites for the center of government The geological survey of the interior department has fixed the approximate locations of the geographical centers of each state. I The geographical center of Alaska Is | difficult to determine, for the outline j^nf the territory is very Irregular, but | if the outlying Islands are Included In 1 the determination It Is not far from a polht 05 miles south of Fort Gibbons, In latitude <18 degrees 46 minutes, longitude 152 degrees 20 minutes. , - ^ ; of stomach tronbMr rheumatism often find that when their stomach is set In order, the rheumatism disappears. Thousands of people everywhere have testified that Tanlnc has freed them of both troubles simultaneously. Mr. Robert Trotter, 148 State St., St. Paul, Minn., says: "About a year ago I began to go down hill. Sour stomach and rheumatism In my arms and shoulders kept me in misery all the time. Since taking Tanlac all my aches and pains have gone, and my stomach Is tn fine I shape. I'm glad to a»dorse such s fine medicine." Rndly digested food fills the .whole system with poisons. Rheumatism and many other complaints not generally recognised as having their origin In the stomach quickly respond to the right treatment.

He divided his whole estate ftmong his four friends; butthey remained in Ignorance of their good fortune, although they had ample opportunity of learning It, so when Laurent died he was deemed intestate, and a distant relation took possession of his property. Ten years later the will was found, and after a costly lawstilt the real heirs recovered about $20,000--less than half the amount originally bequeathed.

Horseback tournaments with lances are u feature of almost every fair and old home day in the country around Washington. Instead of driving his lance against his antagonist to unhorse or disable him. the modem knight of the tournament attempts to pick three rings suspended from crosspieces over tha» course, on the end of Rts lance, wfeH,> galloping through the course at a pre scribed rate of speed.
